The Amendments having been gone through, Lord CASTLEREAGH proposed Wednesday next for the third reading of the Bill. Mr..WlNbaxxt expressed his surprise that the Noble Lord should be so anxious to precipitate the last stage of the Bill, the more. so, as it had this :light been allowed to `proceed into two stages. Lord CASTLEREAGH felt no less surprised at the surprise 'of 'the Right Honourable Gentleman, for surely no hurry had, taken place in the progress of •• t; ,6 Bill; Cu Wednesday last the Bill was m a Com wittee, and then the yuly clauses to which the [tilit Honourable Gentleman had objeCted 'were under consideration. There was now to occur an interruption of busines i s for three or four days, and during that period the Rie,ht Honourable Gen ileman would surely be able to make up his mind with respe to any further objettions which it might he his intention to offer against the principle or the protisions of the Bill. Mr; W. WYNNE, Mr. TIERNEY, and Mr. CAL.. CRAFT, were exceedingly anxious the third reading of the Bill might not be pressed for IVednesday . next, especially.if. the Curates Stipend Bill was to take precedence of it. The Bill was unquestion ably of More importance than any of those which . were said to stand in the. way. It was therefore their wish that the Bill should take precedence of any other, if not on Wednesday next, at least on Thursday or"kriday. . Lord CASTLEREAGH and the CHANCELLOR of the "EXCHEQUER observed, that the business which stood for thoz . * days could not possibly be postponed. The second reading of the Curates' Bill was to have come on immediately utter the Easter recess; and the Dublin Police Bill was with universal consent fixed for Thursday, it being utterly inconvenient for many Irish Members !io attend after that day. Mr. WINDHAM and Mr.•CaLcaxim still pressed their objections to Wednesday ; when the question whether the Bill, be read a third time on Wednes day, betore the discussion on the ,Curates' Bill, ;was rut, and the House divitied - 56 ,A yes Noes , Sir 4', N EW ORT was for postponing to a future gay the Repott of the Committee on the Irish Ft 4arice, as. far as respected the admission of Catho lics into the DireCtion of the Bank of lieland.

SOLZU QUIS rICL&L VALt'Uld AUD&AT t LONDO s&I'UIUMY, JUNE 4, 'l4OB. , Yesterday some intelligence reached Town froth Spain, which, confirths the account we some days ado laid before our Readers, respelling the determi nation of the People of Seville to maintai their in dependence agalast the Fiench. They have talien ! Possession of the Arienals, .in which there. was an immeuie quantify of arms. The accounts from whieliCithe doWn to the 1•501 ult.lare rathet est a wntradiclOry nature.. Some of them say,_ that event ofimportanCe had taken place in that City; white according4o others, the' Patriots had got pod l':-'s*ll°n of the Forts and the Shipping in thetlarbour. The British, Troops did not 'sail ,from Gibraltar till t 4th ult; and if, is we have every reason to be , Il tve, they sailed in Consequence of an arrange .lneht between the British Admiral and the Spanish G 'vertior, it is most probable that no measure of 141 Pottance would be attempted in Cadiz until their arrival. Li WE hav6 eitraded from the Foreign Papers ' li el ) Ptt made by the Minister of the Home Depart mera of Naples, to KibgJusgru, in which that,Mi b l i ster labo . .,rs with great earnestness to detail all .2 ' e bene fi ts for which the people of Naplei ace in "bted to their beloved Soya 4ion. It appears, however, fr6 irithe same Report, that. these Neapolitims are too': '"Pid to perceive, or too ungratefulto acknowledge, , tr "e advantages which have been heaped upon them.. their new SoVereign,lor he has found it neces.: 33 TY to keep an army of 5 . 0-,(.0 °Trench Troops in Na:, Pit's. It may perhaps be Said that these o,ooo.Fiencla -I't(4)ps are no,; stationed in Naples to keep the pea. °t in submisbion, but to defend it against the Egg ; but at the conclusion of the Report we.fuld it o ° 6 itively stated that no apprehensions whatever ' 11.4 entertained of any attacks of the English—that t i'e Neapolitan Artriy amounts to tfilwards of 2 1000 ' n en, and' that the English Troops in Sicily do - not' t acked 10,00 u men. We believe, .however, that the real fad is, that King JossOn is seriously afraid, Both ta ily)nfhis own subje&s and of the English, and he er has no slight grounds for his apprehension. It Was yesterday reported that the' Russian Mini-, 'ter'had quitted Paris in consequence t.)f the recent ''euts which have I.appened in Spain. It is ob "Qus, however, from air examination of the dates, that the, intelligence of the depotiltion of the KIVG of Sti4tN Could not Wye. reached retersbur g h time enough for the Russian Minister to hare received orders td Olt Paris, and return borne, andhe certainly iyoLld riot lthre taken upon himself the responsibility of such a Step without orders. It is possible, howeVer, that the Russian Minister may have gone to Bayonne, and that may have giVen rise to the report in clue's- tion. Tins being the Birth-day or our excellent Mo narch, when he completes his Seventieth Year, it wili doubtless be celelliated all 'over the Ertipire.— There was a large assemblage of the Nobility, &c. &c. at St. James's this day, in order to testify their respe6t on the ()tension. That his life May be Prolonged for the happiness of his subjects, and the prosperity of the realm, 'must be the ardent wish of every wise and honest man throughotat the United Kingdom. We have reason to believe that a conviction of the high merits of the Marquis WELLESLEY, .and of the importance of thoSe services for which he has so long been exposed to persecution, has at length induced his opponents to drop the business, and that he will hereafter be suffered to enjoy that reputation which he so well deserves, undisturbed by the cavils of personal spleen or party malevolence. The visit of the ROYAL FAMILY yesterday to the Britisii,Museum being made public, attraaed a vast concourse :of people there : a small party of the Guards, together with Mactuanus, Townsend, and _Sayers, the P.•lice-Ottieers, were stationed there to keep order. Her MAJESTY, the Prince of WALES, the Dukes of CU AIIIER LAND and CAMBRIDGE, and the PRINCESSES, arrived in three carriages about a quar ter twfore one o'clock. They were received by the Art;hbishop 61 C NTIMBURY the Lord CHANCELthR, the ERII6 Of DARTMOUTH and AYLSFORD. Lord ST. HELEN'S, the SrEAKER of Ilk: House Of Commons, Sirs J. BANES and W. SCOTT, Mr. PLANTA, the Libra, rip, and several others, woo Conducted the „ROYAL FAMILY to the new wing added to the builtling, and skewed them the curiiisities, - with which they ay.: peared highly amused. It is twenty years since her MAJESTY was there. The ROYAL PARTY partook of roue o refreshments, and lett the Museum at three o'clock. His M AJESTY left the Queen's Palace about twelve o'clock, for Blackheath, to dine with the Princess k ot WALEs and Duchess of BRUNSWICK. The Bishop of 4EREPOUD, it is supposed, will be translated to the vacant See of Worcester; and the beau of BRISTOL, it IS! Collfidetiliy said, will be raised to the See of Hereford. , The following Letter, which was written by Louis XVIII. to his relation Cumtpcs IV. the late King of Spain, now a prisoner in BUONAPAETE'S hands, is. of the molt unquestionable authenticity, and derives . increased interest from the circutn, Stances of the present moment. It was written and sent from Calmar,. in Sweden, on the occa sion of the King of Spain sending toßuoNaiAnTit the Order Of the Golden Fleece.' Louts, as soon as he heard it, with becot»ing dignity, instantly sent back to his Catholic IVlajesiy the Insignia of an Or dttr which he conceived to be polluted by its be ing conferred on a man who, iu addition to all his other a6ts of violence, . had dipped his hands in the blood of a Prince of the House of Bourbon, the Duke D'ENGHIEN. Posterity will admit, that how 'ever unfortunate that family may be, it is impossible for.the Head of it to express'himselt with more ma jesty and elevation of mind, than are manifested in this lefter.—CtfAsLis the Third had Conferred on him, the Order, when he was Count DE PROVENCE .

LOUIS." The .principal inducement , of her Majesty and other branches of the - Royal Family - to visit the Bri tish Museum yesterday, was to see the tine Collec tion of Antique Sculpture .- which belonged . to the late Mr. TOWNLEY, Ind which have . been arranged. in - the new wing with admirable taste and judgment. A feW nights Since an : armed party. attacked the hOuse of cue Mathews, in Pluckhimin, near Gauls town, County DUblin, and havihg entered the house,. robbed the pool man of all the clothes that were. worth 'carrying ciff, and. some cash ; they put him on a ,fiot griddle, :and burned him severely, in order to extort more money, and then. 'made their escape. They went from thence to the, house of Paniek Mathews, his brother, in order to rot) him ; and one of the robbers having got partly in by forcing a window, Patrick Mathews struck him desperately on the head With a spade; the felloW dropped a pii tol and his hat in the house when hN received the stroke, and he and his cempanions effected a precipi tate retreat. Next morning the blood was traced near one mile on'the road leading to that city. - The cause of divorce, or separation from bed and board, and mutual cohabitation, promoted by PETER CAMPBELL, 41.111, ;Igaii.st itt:reAss.rn LEWIS CsstruELL, his wife, lbr adultery, an account of which we gave several Months ago, was yesterday determined in the Consistory Court, Doctors Com mons.
